Texas Lt. Gov. Patrick Faults Dallas Protesters Who Fled as Cops Died

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick called Dallas protestors "hypocrites" because they ran from the scene as sniper fire rained down on police detailed to keep order at their demonstration Thursday night.

The shots killed five officers and wounded seven more during a march to protest against recent police shootings of black men. Patrick, a Republican, cited the heated rhetoric from activists that has been directed at law enforcement.

"All those protesters last night, they turned around and ran the other way expecting the men and women in blue to protect them. What hypocrites!" Patrick said on Fox News Friday. "I do blame people on social media with their hatred toward police. I do blame former Black Lives Matter protests. This has to stop."

Texas State Rep. Bill Zedler echoed the sentiment on Twitter.

You rock Bill Zedler , the chicken $hit protesters ran like the wind resembling the stink they created. 11:19 , you get a little pissed when someone tells the truth. I am one of many who will put a stop to this cop killing by any means possible , sleep on that tonight while you are in the hood. These idiots have awakened a sleeping giant that outnumbers you guys 100 to 1 .

Hypocrites? Darn right they expect them to do their jobs! Just like they were expected to do their jobs instead of murder! What? Was police supposed to do? Either way this statement is wrong!
